Post subject:  Packet Sniffer
I would like to see whats going on in my network, just out of curiosity. >.>

Anyone use any and would recommend a good reliable one? Never used one before, doesn't necessarily need to be idiot proof though.

I use ethereal which is now called wireshark. it's not a packet sniffer but a network protocol analyser.

it comes with winpcap which are the bsd pcap libs for windows - these allow ethereal to sniff in promisc mode.

i'm assuming you could use any program to sniff that had the right hooks into winpcap.

you'll need a reboot after installing winpcap.

most people use switches now which means you can't pick up other peoples traffic.

if you run UNIX (or fancy a bot of compiling in windows), check out a program called "ettercap".

it lets you sniff, decode and inject data into network traffic. it also lets you arp spoof which effectively lets you "sniff" on switches. you'll need to enable ip forwarding on your machine tho.

You wont go wrong with Ethereal / winpcap

You could always pop network monitor on your server assuming 'tis a Win box.

Nope, Netgear WGT624 108Mbps Wireless thingy.

I just wanna see whats going on with my network, seems interesting, also I wanna see what the encoding is like on my wireless, lol (pretty crap I'd be guessing) :P
